It was Pride Fest at CitiBank/CitiGroup and the Diablos were invited as well as other local GLBT organizations such as Beat AIDS, AIDS Foundation, Pathways Adoption, PFLAG, Texas Equality, Chamber of Commerce, HRC, Ignite, and Silver Stars. This was a great opportunity for the team to promote the team name and the Inferno Bowl tournament coming up on August 7th.

The Diablos volunteer at the San Antonio Food Bank. The team were outside on a very hot day (~110 degrees) unfolding cots, cleaning them, and folding them back. This was a great opportunity to give back to the community, enjoy time with our teammates, and bond among other volunteers. Great job Diablos!!!!

What an incredible weekend! We had a fuckin great time playing in the Bayou City Brawl hosted by Houston. We won 2 and lost 2, but the Houston team noted and commented to me that they have seen sooo much improvement from last year. They were also thoroughly impressed by our grassroots fan base…. they were the real stars of the tournament! Loud, fun, crazy, and full of Diablos support! It was AWESOME!!!

We saw so many amazing plays including interceptions by JD, newbie Lenny, and Kyle, who managed to run his in for a touchdown. Our veterans improved their game and we were all impressed by the new players as well. We had so many people score including Darren, Jack, Chuck, David, Sophia, EJ, a run-in by Pablo, and about 10 touchdowns throughout the tournament by Kedrick… the football machine. The final scores were:
Diablos vs Houston Who Ya 19-39
Diablos vs Bobcats 21-13
Diablos vs Houston Prime 19-32
Diablos vs Bobcats 29-07 for the BRONZE MEDAL!!!

The dinner and drinks after the tournament were great and great fun and everyone had a great time in Montrose or at the Hotel on Saturday night. This team trip was a great success and we are all looking forward to the next! We hope to make trips to Tyler, Chicago, and Phoenix this year too, as well as host our own tournament, the Inferno Bowl, this summer.

Thanks to everyone who came, played, all our supporters, and for the extra cozy accommodations at the Double Tree… we all got to know each other better!

Our final game of the day was part of the medal round. We had a rematch with the Tyler East Texas Bobcats for the bronze.

We were digging deep in this last game after playing all day. Tyler was coming off a win against the Houston “Who you with?”. The team did a fantastic job sustaining their energy and playing well. The defense had some really great moments including interceptions by Diablo newcomer Lenny and Diablo veteran Kyle. The offense also never let down and was firing on all cylanders to the very end!

The final score was Diablos 28-Tyler 6.

The Diablos brought a great group of fans with them today’s games. Fueled with cheers, signs and maybe a few (dozen) beers, they got CRAZY and helped get us fired up all day long. Thank you to everyone who came out to support us today!

Gimme a “Red   Red   Red   Red  - Black-Black-Black-Black-Black-Black-Black!”
